Featured Release

Thrice: Palms
Genre: Alternative Rock/Post-Hardcore
Label: Epitaph

Still going strong after nine LP’s, Thrice are embarking upon a benchmark with the release of their 10th full length album, Palms. The album comes on the heels of 2016’s To Be Everywhere Is to Be Nowhere, arguably their most politically charged record that followed a five year hiatus. After a winding career that saw them dominate post-hardcore and atmospheric indie-rock, they’ve lately settled into more of an alternative rock groove – but it would not be surprising at all if Palms had some tricks up its sleeve. As one of the biggest and most anticipated albums of this week (and of 2018), our staff ranked their top 10 songs to date. Be sure to check that out along with the single below.
